shocking news:Simone biles apologized for her controversial comment about….

Another, much more notable U.S. Gymnastics team member is Simone Biles, who is also set to compete as part of this summer’s Olympics in Paris.

So, MyKayla recently uploaded a YouTube video that’s since been deleted, where she made disparaging comments about the current U.S. Gymnastics team — as well as the nonprofit organization U.S. Center for SafeSport, which aims to end abusive practices within the world of athletics.

Part 1: The gymnastics community cannot let these comments to be swept under the rug. I will be as respectful as possible to @mykaylaskinner but instead of engaging in meaningful conversation she blocks anyone who holds her accountable for her words. pic.twitter.com/Y69pwCxnUG

“Besides Simone, I feel like the talent and the depth just isn’t like what it used to be,” she said in the video. “The girls just don’t have the work ethic.”

MyKayla went on to criticize SafeSport, saying they make it “hard” because “coaches can’t get on athletes and they have to be really careful what they say.”

“Which, in some ways, is really good,” she noted, “but at the same time, to get to where you need to be in gymnastics you do have to be, I feel like, a little aggressive and a little intense.”

MyKayla’s comments were, on many levels, as stupid as it gets — and her attempt to clarify and apologize for what she said wasn’t much better.

“Hey, guys, just wanted to pop on here really quick, because I know we did the recap on YouTube, and I feel like a lot of you guys had misinterpreted or misunderstood exactly what I was meaning or had said,” she commented in a since-expired IG story slide (via Entertainment Tonight).
